falkiner 19 Jul 2016 #427Merged: Explanation of a book's titlePlease, help me understand the meaning of a title :"The Unraveling: High Hopes and Missed Opportunities in Iraq". I just can't get the exact meaning of the beggining of the title: THE UNRAVELING....in th ewhole contextThanks for any help
aaaaa1 19 Jul 2016 #428falkiner, I'm sorry to say this but by using dictionary.com you can try to understand this TOTALLY easy title without bothering online strangers who do really great job here helping others. Unravel (v) means to free from complication or difficulty; make plain or clear; solve, so (n) means simply explanation.
falkiner 19 Jul 2016 #429Thank you, I just couldn't get the meaning in this context. I checked the dictionary too.
Will_Moreland 23 Jul 2016 #430Merged: Tranlastion for a storyHello.I need a couple of lines of dialogue in Polish for a story I'm writing.The setup is this: an American guy threatens a Polish guy by saying something like, "Leave. Now. Or I call my friend from immigration ... You didn't see me, okay?" Or something that would sound a bit more natural in Polish.Can anyone help with an accurate translation, please?Cheers.
jrogo 24 Jul 2016 #431Merged: Is there a Polish word that sounds like "juke?"My Polish grandfather called one of his kids (female) something that sounded like "juke" as a nickname. Does anyone know what word this could be?
mafketis 35 | 11,547 24 Jul 2016 #432"Leave. Now. Or I call my friend from immigration ... You didn't see me, okay?" Or something that would sound a bit more natural in Polish.I'm not a native speaker but I'll try so the native can correct it and make fun of my pseudo tough guy talk"Jazda! Już! Bo dzwonię do kumpla ze służby migracyjnego.... nie widziałeś mnie, kumasz?"change widziałeś to widziałaś if the person is speaking to a woman.
Looker - | 1,139 24 Jul 2016 #433I would only changemigracyjnegofor 'imigracyjnej' - everything else seems perfect.
mafketis 35 | 11,547 24 Jul 2016 #434I would only change migracyjnegofor 'imigracyjnej'yikes! I started with urząd and forgot to change the adjective when I realized służba was the better word.....
Littlefashion 28 Jul 2016 #435Merged: tylko chcę na kommissarstwie utrzymać swoiąI would be most grateful if someone could help me to translate this sentence:"tylko chcę na kommissarstwie utrzymać swoią"I thank you very much in advance
Looker - | 1,139 28 Jul 2016 #436This sentence is not complete. And it looks old - kommissarstwo means in this sentence probably a government job or function. And the part of this sentence might be translated like: I just want to keep my ... (?) /not finished/ on "kommissarstwo"
Littlefashion 28 Jul 2016 #437the beginning of the sentence is:"Anna iest ze wszech miar dobrą tylko chcę na kommissarstwie utrzymać swoią"How could this sentence be translated?Once again, thank you very much for your help with the translation!
Looker - | 1,139 28 Jul 2016 #438The ending of this sentence would be more meaningful. Anyway it may mean more less:Anna is a good person but I (or she - this may be misspelled) want to keep my/her ...(?) on 'kommissar'.
learningpolish2 1 Aug 2016 #440Merged: Taka sobie faza - meaning?Hi. Does anyone know what Taka sobie faza means in English?Many thanks!
ninjapanza 1 Aug 2016 #441Hi, I need help with name pronunciation... the family's last name is Swirydowicz. Thank you!Oh my gosh, nevermind. I just found where someone had already answered me!
wojtus - | 9 3 Aug 2016 #442What does "reperowanie" mean except for a typical meaning 'repair'??Not really. It's quite general term, however "naprawianie" has same meaning and is used more often.Hi. Does anyone know what Taka sobie faza means in English?Huh, this one is weird. "Quite average phase"... Without context it's impossible to get it. "Faza" in slang language is a state of being slightly drunk/intoxicated. It's also commonly used for a hot wire in AC installations. Other meanings are technical ones, equal to english "phase"."Taka sobie" is an idiom meaning "nothing special".
Lyzko 41 | 8,871 3 Aug 2016 #443"Taka sobie" can sometimes substitute for simply "nieźle" or "not bad" and "wszystko po staremu" = same old, same old.:-)
gregy741 5 | 1,251 4 Aug 2016 #444tak sobie not "taka sobie" - means " so so""nieźle" - means not bad.
gregy741 5 | 1,251 4 Aug 2016 #446no worrys.i am totaly dumb when comes to learn languages.been living in the UK for like 14 years and still struggle in everyday conversations. i use to be fluent in Russian tho.but long time ago,when i learned it in primary school.my brain hates language learning.ive typical math brain
Lyzko 41 | 8,871 4 Aug 2016 #447Now you need to "translate" from SMSese into standard English. You should charge a fee for it, you make a bundle:-)Forget learning a second language until the first one has been mastered!
PolishForLife 27 Aug 2016 #448Merged: I just want to get someone to translate something for me.I am of Polish decent and have always wanted to get something meaningful tattooed on me, but my babcia can no longer write well, as she has not had to use it for years, so she cannot give me the correct writing. At least she says so, and I wouldn't want to take the risk anyways! :) I just want the words "God is greater than the highs and lows." or the most correct translation.
adsalk 1 | 17 27 Aug 2016 #449Literal translation would be this: "Bóg jest większy niż wzloty i upadki"But honestly, it sounds weird to me, even the English version :)
984562 31 Aug 2016 #450It's a short form of a quote from the bible, Romans 8:39 to be more precise."Neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."Polish version:"Ani wysokość, ani głębokość, ani żadne inne stworzenie nie zdoła nas odłączyć od miłości Bożej, która jest w Chrystusie Jezusie, Panu naszym."God is greater than the highs and lows.Żadna wzniosłość czy upadek nie odłączy nas/mnie od miłości Bożej.Depending on whether you want your quote to state us/or myselfSo the direct translation of the polish version would be:Neither high nor low will separate us/me from God's grace.
